Description

本発明は、便を採取し、保管するための採便器具に関するものである。   The present invention relates to a stool collection device for collecting and storing stool.

従来、検便をおこなうために、採便棒で便を採取し、容器の中に密封している。たとえば、図13に示す従来の採便器具130は、培地が入った容器132、容器132の一端134に形成された開口136、その開口136を閉じるキャップ138、キャップ138に取り付けられた採便棒140を備えている。採便棒140の先端は凸部142と凹部144からなる便の採取部146になっている。   Conventionally, in order to perform stool examination, stool is collected with a stool collection stick and sealed in a container. For example, a conventional stool collection instrument 130 shown in FIG. 13 includes a container 132 containing a medium, an opening 136 formed at one end 134 of the container 132, a cap 138 that closes the opening 136, and a stool collection rod attached to the cap 138. 140. The tip of the stool collection rod 140 is a stool collection unit 146 comprising a convex part 142 and a concave part 144.

容器132の中に密封された便を検査するとき、ロボットアームでキャップ138を取り外し、採取部146を検査用の培地にこすり付けたりする。その後、再び採便棒140を容器132の中に入れ、キャップ138の中に容器132の一端134を入れる。容器132の開口136が閉じられる。   When the stool sealed in the container 132 is inspected, the cap 138 is removed by the robot arm, and the collection unit 146 is rubbed against the inspection medium. Thereafter, the stool collection rod 140 is again placed in the container 132, and one end 134 of the container 132 is placed in the cap 138. The opening 136 of the container 132 is closed.

採便棒140が容器132の中心軸に配置されないと、キャップ138の中に容器132が入らない。キャップ138と容器132の位置がずれた状態で、ロボットアームがキャップ138で容器132の開口136を閉じようとすると、容器132の一端134、キャップ138またはその両方を押しつぶす恐れがある。ロボットアームで複数の採便器具130を順番に検査するため、1つでも開口136を閉じられなければ、他の採便器具130の検査に影響する。なお、特許文献1に記載されている採便容器も図13と同様の構造が有り、容器132の一端134とキャップ138とがぶつかる恐れがある。   If the stool collection bar 140 is not disposed on the central axis of the container 132, the container 132 does not enter the cap 138. If the robot arm attempts to close the opening 136 of the container 132 with the cap 138 with the cap 138 and the container 132 being out of position, the end 134 of the container 132, the cap 138, or both may be crushed. Since a plurality of stool collection instruments 130 are inspected in order by the robot arm, the inspection of other stool collection instruments 130 is affected unless even one opening 136 is closed. Note that the stool collection container described in Patent Document 1 also has the same structure as that in FIG. 13, and there is a possibility that the one end 134 of the container 132 and the cap 138 may collide with each other.

本発明の採便器具について図面を使用して説明する。   The stool collection apparatus of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.

図1に示す採便器具10は、容器12、その容器12の開口を閉じるキャップ14、採取部16を備えた採便棒18、その採便棒18に設けられた羽部20を備える。   A stool collection apparatus 10 shown in FIG. 1 includes a container 12, a cap 14 that closes the opening of the container 12, a stool collection rod 18 that includes a collection unit 16, and a wing 20 that is provided on the stool collection rod 18.

図2、図3に示すように、容器12は円筒状であり、その一端22は閉じずに開口24にし、他端26は閉じている。容器12の一端22がキャップ14の中に入って、容器12の開口24が閉じられる。キャップ14の中に入る部分は容器12の厚みを薄くした薄肉部28になっている(図3(a))。キャップ14の内壁は薄肉部28に接するようになっている。容器12における薄肉部28以外の部分は薄肉部28よりも厚くなった厚肉部30になっている。   As shown in FIGS. 2 and 3, the container 12 has a cylindrical shape, one end 22 of which is not closed but an opening 24, and the other end 26 is closed. One end 22 of the container 12 enters the cap 14 and the opening 24 of the container 12 is closed. A portion that enters the cap 14 is a thin portion 28 in which the thickness of the container 12 is reduced (FIG. 3A). The inner wall of the cap 14 is in contact with the thin portion 28. A portion other than the thin portion 28 in the container 12 is a thick portion 30 that is thicker than the thin portion 28.

薄肉部28の複数個所にリング状の凸部32を設けている。キャップ14の内壁34にリング状の凸部32がはまる凹部36を設けている(図4)。凸部32と凹部36によってキャップ14が薄肉部28から外れにくくなっている。薄肉部28とキャップ14の内壁34が接しており、さらに複数の凸部32と凹部36を設けているため、キャップ14で容器12を密封できる。   Ring-shaped convex portions 32 are provided at a plurality of portions of the thin portion 28. A concave portion 36 into which the ring-shaped convex portion 32 is fitted is provided on the inner wall 34 of the cap 14 (FIG. 4). The cap 14 is not easily detached from the thin portion 28 by the convex portion 32 and the concave portion 36. Since the thin wall portion 28 and the inner wall 34 of the cap 14 are in contact with each other, and the plurality of convex portions 32 and concave portions 36 are provided, the container 12 can be sealed with the cap 14.

厚肉部30における薄肉部28付近にリング状の凸部38を設けている。リング状の凸部38は複数ある。凸部38が容器12を持った時のすべり止めになる。キャップ14の付け外し時に指が滑るのを防止できる。   A ring-shaped convex portion 38 is provided near the thin portion 28 in the thick portion 30. There are a plurality of ring-shaped convex portions 38. The convex portion 38 is a non-slip when the container 12 is held. It is possible to prevent the finger from slipping when the cap 14 is attached or detached.

容器12の中に便の保存または検査用の培地40が入っている(図1(b))。培地40は、液体培地や半流動培地が挙げられる。キャップ14で開口24を閉じたときに、培地40の中に採取部16が入るようになっている。なお、検査方法によっては、容器12の中に培地40を入れない場合もある。   A medium 40 for storing or examining feces is contained in the container 12 (FIG. 1B). Examples of the medium 40 include a liquid medium and a semi-fluid medium. When the opening 24 is closed with the cap 14, the collection unit 16 enters the culture medium 40. Depending on the inspection method, the culture medium 40 may not be placed in the container 12.

採便棒18は一端42と他端44を有する直線状の棒状体である(図5)。採便棒18の断面は円形になっている。採便棒18の一端42またはその付近に採取部16が有る。採便棒18と採取部16は一体的に形成されている。   The stool collection rod 18 is a linear rod-shaped body having one end 42 and the other end 44 (FIG. 5). The cross section of the stool collection rod 18 is circular. The collection part 16 is at one end 42 of the stool collection rod 18 or in the vicinity thereof. The stool collection rod 18 and the collection unit 16 are integrally formed.

採取部16は採便棒18の一端42またはその付近に形成した凸部46と凹部48からなる。凸部46は採便棒18の一端42にいくほど先細りになっており、採取部16が便に刺さりやすくなっている。図6(a)に示すように、採取部16の側部が凹むように凹部48が形成されている。採取部16を便の中に突き刺したときに、凹部48の中に便が入る。凹部48の中に別の凸部50を設け、凹部48の中に入った便が、凹部48内で維持されやすくなっている。   The collection part 16 includes a convex part 46 and a concave part 48 formed at or near one end 42 of the stool collection rod 18. The convex portion 46 tapers toward the one end 42 of the stool collection rod 18 so that the collection unit 16 can be easily stuck in the stool. As shown in FIG. 6A, a recess 48 is formed so that the side portion of the sampling portion 16 is recessed. When the collection unit 16 is stabbed into the stool, the stool enters the recess 48. Another convex portion 50 is provided in the concave portion 48 so that the stool that has entered the concave portion 48 is easily maintained in the concave portion 48.

キャップ14の内底52に採便棒18を固定する固定部54が設けられている(図4)。キャップ14の内底52は円形になっており、固定部54は円筒形になっている。固定部54の内壁56にはリング状の凸部58が設けられている。採便棒18の他端44付近には凸部60が設けられている(図5)。採便棒18の他端44が固定部54の中に入ると、凸部58、60同士が引っかかり、採便棒18が固定部54に固定される。キャップ14の内底52の中心に採便棒18が固定され、採便棒18の長さ方向が内底52に対して垂直方向を向いている。   A fixing portion 54 for fixing the stool collection rod 18 is provided on the inner bottom 52 of the cap 14 (FIG. 4). The inner bottom 52 of the cap 14 has a circular shape, and the fixing portion 54 has a cylindrical shape. A ring-shaped convex portion 58 is provided on the inner wall 56 of the fixed portion 54. A convex portion 60 is provided near the other end 44 of the stool collection rod 18 (FIG. 5). When the other end 44 of the stool collection rod 18 enters the fixed portion 54, the convex portions 58 and 60 are caught with each other, and the stool collection rod 18 is fixed to the fixed portion 54. The stool collection rod 18 is fixed to the center of the inner bottom 52 of the cap 14, and the length direction of the stool collection rod 18 faces the vertical direction with respect to the inner bottom 52.

採便棒18に鍔62が設けられている。鍔62は固定部54の端部64に接する。鍔62が端部64に接することで、キャップ14に対して採便棒18がぐらつかず、安定しやすい。   A bowl 62 is provided on the stool collection rod 18. The flange 62 is in contact with the end portion 64 of the fixing portion 54. When the collar 62 is in contact with the end portion 64, the stool collection rod 18 does not wobble with respect to the cap 14 and is easily stabilized.

採便棒18の長さ方向の途中に板状の羽部20が設けられている。羽部20は複数であり、採便棒18の周方向に間隔を空けて配置されている(図6(b))。羽部20同士の間隔は、一定であっても良いし、不規則な間隔であっても良い。   A plate-like wing portion 20 is provided in the middle of the length of the stool collection rod 18. There are a plurality of wing parts 20, and they are arranged at intervals in the circumferential direction of the stool collection rod 18 (FIG. 6B). The interval between the wings 20 may be constant or may be an irregular interval.

羽部20の一部は容器12の内壁66に接する接触部68になっている。全ての羽部20は同一形状になっており、採便棒18からそれぞれの接触部68までの距離は全て同じである。接触部68が容器12の内壁66に接することで、採便棒18を容器12の中心軸O(図3)に配置することができる。   A part of the wing portion 20 is a contact portion 68 that contacts the inner wall 66 of the container 12. All the wing parts 20 have the same shape, and the distances from the stool collection rod 18 to the respective contact parts 68 are all the same. When the contact portion 68 contacts the inner wall 66 of the container 12, the stool collection rod 18 can be disposed on the central axis O (FIG. 3) of the container 12.

図7に示すように、採便棒18の長さはキャップ14の深さよりも長いため、採便棒18の一端42はキャップ14の外側に配置されている。さらに、接触部68はキャップ14の外側に配置されている。そのため、キャップ14の中に容器12の薄肉部28が入るまでに、接触部68が容器12の内壁66に接する。上述したように、採便棒18が容器12の中心軸Oに配置される。キャップ14で容器12を閉じるときに、容器12とキャップ14の位置合わせができ、キャップ14と容器12がぶつかって破損することを防止できる。なお、接触部68の全てがキャップ14の外側に出ている必要は無く、接触部68の一部がキャップ14の外に配置されれば良い。   As shown in FIG. 7, since the length of the stool collection rod 18 is longer than the depth of the cap 14, one end 42 of the stool collection rod 18 is disposed outside the cap 14. Further, the contact portion 68 is disposed outside the cap 14. Therefore, the contact portion 68 contacts the inner wall 66 of the container 12 until the thin portion 28 of the container 12 enters the cap 14. As described above, the stool collection rod 18 is disposed on the central axis O of the container 12. When the container 12 is closed with the cap 14, the container 12 and the cap 14 can be aligned, and the cap 14 and the container 12 can be prevented from colliding and being damaged. Note that it is not necessary for the entire contact portion 68 to be outside the cap 14, and a portion of the contact portion 68 may be disposed outside the cap 14.

羽部20は、採便棒18の一端42から他端44に向けて広がる傾斜部70を備える。傾斜部70は接触部68よりも採便棒18の一端42側にある。傾斜部70のもっとも広がった部分が接触部68とつながっている。容器12に採便棒18を入れ始めたとき、採便棒18が容器12の中心軸Oに来なくても、傾斜部70が容器12の一端22に当たる。そのため、採便棒18が徐々に容器12の中心軸Oに向かう。さらに接触部68が容器12の中に入ると、接触部68が容器12の内壁66に接し、上記のように容器12の中心軸Oに採便棒18が配置される。   The wing portion 20 includes an inclined portion 70 that spreads from one end 42 to the other end 44 of the stool collection rod 18. The inclined portion 70 is closer to the one end 42 side of the stool collection rod 18 than the contact portion 68. The most widened portion of the inclined portion 70 is connected to the contact portion 68. When the stool collection rod 18 starts to be put into the container 12, the inclined portion 70 hits the one end 22 of the container 12 even if the stool collection rod 18 does not come to the central axis O of the container 12. Therefore, the stool collection rod 18 gradually moves toward the central axis O of the container 12. When the contact portion 68 further enters the container 12, the contact portion 68 contacts the inner wall 66 of the container 12, and the stool collection rod 18 is disposed on the central axis O of the container 12 as described above.

羽部20と羽部20の間に空間72が有る。羽部20によって容器12を密封することは無い。培地40と便でガスが発生する場合があるが、容器12における羽部20よりも他端26側の空間のガス圧を高めにくい。ガスによる暴発の恐れを小さくできる。   There is a space 72 between the wings 20. The wing 20 does not seal the container 12. Gas may be generated in the medium 40 and feces, but it is difficult to increase the gas pressure in the space on the other end 26 side of the wing portion 20 in the container 12. The risk of gas explosion can be reduced.

採取した便を自動で検査する場合、ロボットアームがキャップ14を取り外す。そのロボットアームはキャップ14を回転させながら容器12からキャップ14を取り外す。キャップ14を回転させた際、羽部20によって容器12の内壁66についた便を落とすこともできる。便の散らばりを防止できる。   When the collected stool is automatically inspected, the robot arm removes the cap 14. The robot arm removes the cap 14 from the container 12 while rotating the cap 14. When the cap 14 is rotated, the stool attached to the inner wall 66 of the container 12 can be dropped by the wing portion 20. It can prevent stool scattering.

容器12の一端22に切り欠き74を設けている。切り欠き74は容器12の長さ方向に対して傾斜しており、半円形または半楕円形になっている。切り欠き74でできた空間76が開口14につながることで、採便棒18を容器12に入れる空間が広がる。キャップ14を取り外したとき、採便棒18を傾斜させることができ、空間76でキャップ14を取り外し易くなっている。採便棒18を傾斜させて容器12に入れることも可能になり、キャップ14を開け閉めし易くなっている。切り欠き74でできた空間76もキャップ14で閉じられる。   A notch 74 is provided at one end 22 of the container 12. The notch 74 is inclined with respect to the length direction of the container 12 and is semicircular or semielliptical. A space 76 formed by the notches 74 is connected to the opening 14, so that a space for inserting the stool collection rod 18 into the container 12 is expanded. When the cap 14 is removed, the stool collection rod 18 can be inclined, and the cap 14 can be easily removed in the space 76. It is possible to incline the stool collection rod 18 into the container 12 and to easily open and close the cap 14. A space 76 formed by the notch 74 is also closed by the cap 14.

図7に示すように、切り欠き74の高さd1は、傾斜部70が最も広がった部分からキャップ14までの長さd2よりも小さくする。採便部18が空間76から容器12に入ったとしても、傾斜部70が容器12にすべて入った後でキャップ14の中に容器12が入るようになる。容器12の中心軸Oに採便棒18が配置された状態でキャップ14の中に容器12が入れられ、キャップ14と容器12がぶつからない。   As shown in FIG. 7, the height d <b> 1 of the notch 74 is set to be smaller than the length d <b> 2 from the portion where the inclined portion 70 is most widened to the cap 14. Even if the stool collection part 18 enters the container 12 from the space 76, the container 12 comes into the cap 14 after all the inclined parts 70 have entered the container 12. The container 12 is put in the cap 14 in a state where the stool collection rod 18 is disposed on the central axis O of the container 12, and the cap 14 and the container 12 do not collide.

以上ように、本発明は接触部68をキャップ14の外側に配置したことで、キャップ14と容器12のぶつかりを防止でき、容器12を密閉するときの事故を防止できる。接触部68につながる傾斜部70もキャップ14の外にあり、採便棒18の位置がずれも、キャップ14の中に容器12が入る前に、スムーズに採便棒18の位置を容器12の中心軸Oにすることができる。また、羽部20が容器を密封しないため、羽部20によって容器12内のガス圧を高めすぎず、暴発の恐れが小さくなっている。   As described above, the present invention can prevent the cap 14 and the container 12 from colliding with each other and can prevent an accident when the container 12 is sealed by arranging the contact portion 68 on the outside of the cap 14. The inclined portion 70 connected to the contact portion 68 is also outside the cap 14, and even if the position of the stool collection rod 18 is shifted, the position of the stool collection rod 18 can be smoothly moved before the container 12 enters the cap 14. It can be the central axis O. Further, since the wing part 20 does not seal the container, the wing part 20 does not increase the gas pressure in the container 12 too much, and the risk of explosion is reduced.

以上、本発明の実施形態を説明したが、本発明は上記の実施形態に限定されない。たとえば、図8(a)の採便棒80のように、羽部82が三角形であっても良い。羽部82の全体にわたって傾斜部83が形成される。傾斜部83のもっとも広がった部分が接触部84になる。   As mentioned above, although embodiment of this invention was described, this invention is not limited to said embodiment. For example, the wing part 82 may be a triangle like the stool collection rod 80 of FIG. An inclined portion 83 is formed over the entire wing portion 82. The most widened portion of the inclined portion 83 becomes the contact portion 84.

図8(b)の採便棒85の羽部86のように、曲線的に広がる傾斜部88であっても良い。図8(a)と同様に、傾斜部88の最も広がった部分が接触部89になる。   It may be an inclined portion 88 that spreads out like a wing 86 of the stool collection rod 85 in FIG. Similarly to FIG. 8A, the most widened portion of the inclined portion 88 becomes the contact portion 89.

以上の説明から、採便棒18、80、85の一端42から他端44に向けて広がるのであれば傾斜部70、83、88の角度や形状は限定されない。傾斜部70、83、88につながっており、キャップ14の外側に配置されているのであれば、接触部68、84、89の形状も限定されない。   From the above description, the angles and shapes of the inclined portions 70, 83, and 88 are not limited as long as they extend from the one end 42 to the other end 44 of the stool collection rods 18, 80, and 85. The shape of the contact portions 68, 84, and 89 is not limited as long as it is connected to the inclined portions 70, 83, and 88 and is disposed outside the cap 14.

図9の羽部90のように、採便棒18の途中に形成した円錐台91の外周に円弧状の溝92を形成し、溝92と溝92の間を羽部90にしても良い。すなわち、採便棒18に羽部90を直接形成せず、間接的に形成していても良い。円錐台91のテーパーになっている箇所が採便棒18の一端から他端に向けて広がった傾斜部93、羽部90の最も外側が容器12の内壁66に接する接触部94になっている。溝92は円弧状に限定されず、三角形などであっても良い。   Like the wing portion 90 of FIG. 9, an arc-shaped groove 92 may be formed on the outer periphery of the truncated cone 91 formed in the middle of the stool collection rod 18, and the wing portion 90 may be formed between the groove 92 and the groove 92. That is, the wing portion 90 may not be directly formed on the stool collection rod 18 but may be formed indirectly. The tapered portion of the truncated cone 91 is an inclined portion 93 that extends from one end of the stool collection rod 18 to the other end, and the outermost portion of the wing portion 90 is a contact portion 94 that contacts the inner wall 66 of the container 12. . The groove 92 is not limited to an arc shape, and may be a triangle or the like.

図10の羽部100のように、採便棒18の円錐台101における採便棒18と平行になった箇所102に羽部100を設けている。円錐台101の傾斜部分103から羽部100に続く傾斜部104、傾斜部103が最も広がった部分である接触部105を備える。円錐台101に羽部100を設けたが、角錐台に羽部100を設けても良い。さらに図11のように、角錐台の羽部110であっても良い。角錐台の最も広がったところが接触部111になる。   Like the wing portion 100 of FIG. 10, the wing portion 100 is provided at a location 102 in the truncated cone 101 of the stool collection rod 18 that is parallel to the stool collection rod 18. An inclined portion 104 that extends from the inclined portion 103 of the truncated cone 101 to the wing portion 100, and a contact portion 105 that is the portion where the inclined portion 103 spreads most are provided. Although the wing part 100 is provided on the truncated cone 101, the wing part 100 may be provided on the truncated pyramid. Furthermore, as shown in FIG. 11, the wing part 110 of a truncated pyramid may be used. The most widened portion of the truncated pyramid becomes the contact portion 111.

図12の採便棒120のように、採便棒120の一端42付近に多数の小さな凸部122を設け、採取部124にしても良い。採取部124に便が付けば、採取部124の形状は限定されない。また、図1等に示した凹部48の代わりに貫通穴にしても良い。   Like the stool collection rod 120 in FIG. 12, a number of small convex portions 122 may be provided near one end 42 of the stool collection rod 120 to form the collection unit 124. If feces are attached to the collection unit 124, the shape of the collection unit 124 is not limited. Further, instead of the recess 48 shown in FIG.

キャップ14に採便棒18、80、85、120が固定されればその構造は限定されない。キャップ14と採便棒18、80、85、120を一体的に形成して、キャップ14に採便棒18、80、85、120を固定しても良い。   If the stool collection rods 18, 80, 85, 120 are fixed to the cap 14, the structure is not limited. The cap 14 and the stool collection bars 18, 80, 85, 120 may be integrally formed, and the stool collection bars 18, 80, 85, 120 may be fixed to the cap 14.

その他、本発明は、その主旨を逸脱しない範囲で当業者の知識に基づき種々の改良、修正、変更を加えた態様で実施できるものである。   In addition, the present invention can be carried out in a mode in which various improvements, modifications, and changes are added based on the knowledge of those skilled in the art without departing from the spirit of the present invention.
